#22: Layered Pixie Bob
This haircut’s layered pieces make for a great tousled edgy look.
My advice for anyone seeking to get a similar haircut is to be prepared to style it out. I like to compare this haircut to getting a fringe (bangs) because to keep it looking in shape and easy to style, frequent trips to the salon for maintenance work is required.
This haircut is detailed, so hair type, texture, and growth patterns become magnified and are an important part of the end results. Styling may be a little challenging for those who have cowlicks, however, with great styling products such as pomades, working hairspray, and smoothing serum, most haircuts can become pretty easy to style. For lazy or active days, headbands and Bobby pins become your best friend.

#23: Inverted Pixie Bob for Women Over 60
An inverted pixie bob for women over 60 is an amazing style to try. The silhouette that this cut creates is extremely flattering and will make you look and feel amazing. Make sure you’re using a heat protectant, like Moroccan Oil Perfect Defense, when styling your hair.

#24: The Bixie Cut
If you’re thinking about a pixie bob, opt for a bixie cut. For round and square face shapes a bixie cut, or pixie bob, will balance out your feature. Ask for an asymmetrical part and long pieces on the side-swept bang in the front. This creates an illusion of softer elongated features. Add short edgy texture in the back to compete the pixie look and give you body and roundness through the crown.

Now you won’t sacrifice length when getting a shorter cut! Loos locks on the face can create a softening effect and balance the sharp edges of a pixie bob.

#32: Bob for Naturally Curly Hair
This curly pixie bob cut is the result of the lady growing out her previously very short hair. It’s longer than a pixie cut but also not yet a bob. It’s fun, voluminous, and easy.
For those of us fortunate enough to be given beautiful curls, this is perfect if you just want to shampoo and air dry with minimal product use. The upkeep is easy, and it’s suitable for all ages but naturally thick. The curly texture is important in achieving this look.

#33: Perfect Bob for Black Hair
Q&A with style creator, Stevie Cook
Hairstylist @ Indigo Salon & Spa in San Diego, CA
How would you describe this look?
This look is a very feminine and soft “overgrown” or long pixie cut. It has soft lines and a long fringe area so someone who is perhaps a little afraid to go short will feel like they still have a little length to play with.
It can be worn parted on either side or styled back or messier which is my favorite thing about this look. Anyone can wear this and still have styling options. It’s great for any face shape or hair texture.
Any advice for someone considering it?
Absolutely go for it! I love this cut so much. Any face shape can have this look, but if you have a rounder face shape, I would make the fringe a bit more choppy and a little shorter than the jawline.
This look does not require a lot of styling, so it’s great if you are active or work out a lot or if you want to look cool and a bit edgy with little effort.
A light mousse is great to blow dry in for volume and finish with a creme wax for definition and separation. This look will absolutely work for short curly hair as well.

#34: Edgy Textured Pixie Bob
Opt for a long textured pixie cut. This cut is so fun because there is a lot you can do with it. You can wear it sleek or sassy. It’s one of those pixie cuts that can be so versatile.
You should have the time in your day to make for styling. Styling takes minimal time, but with short hair, it needs to be styled, or else it just doesn’t look good.
Make sure that you looking for a cut like this finds a stylist who is confident in cutting short hair so that she can give you a complimentary haircut!

#35: Short Pixie Bob
This is a layered pixie bob. The longer length in the front and sides of her hair adds femininity, while the short tapered back removes unnecessary bulk and shows off her beautiful neckline. The highlights add a beautiful dimension that really makes the hair pop.
This cut lets you have fun with a bunch of different looks. Before you commit to it, make sure you understand your texture, thickness, and face shape. You want a cut that highlights your best features.
To get the look in the photo – Blow dry with your fingers first, and lift as you direct the warm air close to the root/base to create volume. Finish off with a round brush for softness and control. Apply a molding wax throughout that’s lightweight. It should have enough control to shape without making the hair look stiff.
To create a sleek, evening look – Apply gel with a strong to medium hold on damp hair and comb back or with a deep side part.
To create a face-framing look – Blow dry towards the face (not away) then finish with a light serum or pomade.
To create a mohawk or pompadour look – Blow dry with fingers first. Lift and direct air at the root for volume. Use a round brush on the crown area away from the face. Afterward, set a couple of 1.5″ velcro rollers. Roll hair back for a few minutes on top – only when necessary for extra volume. Slick down the sides with a texturing cream or paste and finger excess product through the crown. Finish off with hairspray for extra hold and control.
This haircut can be fun for anyone who loves versatility or just having a short layered cut.

#36: Long Pixie Bob
Opt for long pixie bobs if you want a change. Just take into consideration how much time you spend on your hair. A long pixie bob is typically easy maintenance.
Styling products are probably the major factor to create a stylish pixie bob. Use the best shampoo, conditioner, hair paste or wax, and heat protectant.
If you’re hesitant, just go for it! A good haircutter will be able to adjust what type of pixie hairstyle that suits you best.

#37: Gorgeous Pixie Back View
Go for a haircut that is versatile, like an undercut pixie bob. You could wear it on both sides and in the middle. It’s clean, fun, and edgy all at the same time. This haircut is a high-maintenance haircut where you should get it cleaned up every 6-8 weeks in order to keep the shaping of the cut. This cut is great if you have a face shape that is oval, square, and round, and is ideal if you have finer hair and would like a little more volume. All you need is to add a little mousse, round brush, and 5 minutes to blow dry, and you are done.

#38: Pixie Bob with Layers
For a seamless transition to short hair try a pixie bob with layers. A pixie bob is a perfect cut for women looking to transition into a more mature style and the layering can help make it easier to style. A pixie bob can be quite easy to style and maintain but often it does require at least some small amount of daily styling. Maintenance appointment needs can vary based on how clean and fresh you like your haircut to look. Those who prefer a clean cut appearance will likely need more trim and shaping appointments than those who prefer a more relaxed and lived-in style.
